Default vibration during hard cornering

i have a 93 si with an h22a, spax rsx coilovers, during hard cornering left or right there is a vibration that feels like your running over rumble strips, it dosnt make any odd noises during regular driving or when cruising a parking lot and u turn the wheels from lock to lock....anyone have any ideas please help

Axle, probably too long so it bottoms out on the inner joint when the suspension compresses. Remeber the inner joint floats in and out to compensate for suspension movement. I had a set of aftermarket ones that did exactly what you are describing when turning left under high load on the track. I don't know what the correct combination of parts is for your combo to prevent this, check with places like Hasport and others that make stuff for swaps.

That sounds like what I was thinking too....it is most def an axle issue...if your car is slammed a camber kit may help pull the inner joint apart a little.

i am using hasport mount and drive shaft shop level 3 axles.... like i said before im using spax coilovers...im not that low , only about a half inchdown on the threads...i just had the passenger side axles rebuilt by DSS....i do believe i had the same problem before but only after removal of my front strut tower bar, do you think a little bit of extra shassis flex coult cause this???

I doubt if chassis flex would do it....it still sounds like axles....

unless you have a funny offset wheel/tire combo and you are rubbing the inner fender well...
